DISCUSSION:
Rivers of London: Body Work
Writer: Ben Aaronovich, Andrew Cartmel
Artists: Lee Sullivan, Luis Guerrero
Peter Grant looks look your average London police officer, but he is actually a part-time wizard in a very elite branch of the Metropolitan Police. It’s his job to investigate those crimes that regular cops don’t like to talk about because they often involve vampires or strange things in Underground tunnels.
Peter’s latest case features a self-driving killer automobile, a Serbian refugee, the Most Haunted Car in England, a handsome drug dealer with a nice paisley scarf and a seemingly harmless wooden bench with a dark past!

I haven’t read any of the rivers of London comics but my understanding is they are spin-off stories rather than adaptations.
I would certainly recommend picking up at least the first novel in the book series. It does a really good job of setting things up.
I also like how London is presented as a modern cosmoploitan city whilst drawing on its deep well of history and mythology. Not sure how well all that travels but for me it really works.
Please please please get rid of that awful new theme tune and bring back the old one! Me and my kids used to sing along to it whenever they heard it and now they just scream and cover their ears. It means I can’t listen to the show in the shower any more as I can’t risk getting to the end and having my ears bleed!
Please… I’m begging you!
This is the old one ;)
